I’m originally from Brasilia, Brazil. I’m a Biologist, and I’m currently at Yale University researching viral epidemics. I love travelling, dancing and meeting new people, so CS seems the right place for me. I’m a sociable, easygoing person, who loves learning about different cultures and ways of life.

Besides my hometown, I previously lived in São Paulo 🇧🇷 (2 years), London (4 years) 🇬🇧, and now nearly a year in the United States 🇺🇸.
